Q66. A robot's sensing-to-command pipeline has measured latency 15 ms and a control period of 25 ms. Is the latency within one control period?

A. No, because latency must always be zero B. Yes, because 15 ms is less than or equal to 25 ms C. Yes, because latency is measured in seconds D. It cannot be compared without the robot's payload

Check Answer

Correct Answer: B   |   Marks: 1
